Burress had already been ruled out of this weekend's game against the Redskins with a hamstring injury. The Eagles play the Giants in Week 14.

Burress was suspended by the team for one game in October. In the offseason, the Giants signed him to a five-year, $35 million contract.

Burress is 31-years-old. He has 35 catches for 454 yards and four touchdowns on the season. He hasn't caught more than three balls in a game since Week 6. In Week 10 against the Eagles, Burress caught just one pass, but it was a 17-yard touchdown.

UPDATED AT 6 P.M.

ESPN.com's Sal Paolantonio reports that the incident took place at the Latin Quarter nightclub in Manhattan. He also reports that the bullet went through the skin and muscle tissue of Burress' right thigh.
